People say that senior year is the best. It’s the last year; you should cherish it. But at first, I didn’t agree. Before I even started the year, things weren’t going so well for me. The guy I liked, who was my childhood friend, started ignoring me. Some friends of mine got in trouble, and for some reason I hadn’t been the same since. I became closed off from my friends, and the emotions I had felt before were hidden behind a mask of defiance I had made for myself. I became self-absorbed and depressed. Life felt empty to me.
But that all changed.
As the year progressed, I found myself. The wall I had built, closing in my emotions, was broken down. I became open with my friends again and I was happy. It seems like an unrealistic change, but it was true.
Although my junior year had been filled with problems, I never would have guessed that in the end, it could bring me so much happiness. It all began with that last summer and as time went on, instead of just surviving, I found out how to live.
It was all because I met him.
